How it WorksThe Corporate Work Study Program is separately
incorporated and functions like a temporary
employment agency. We handle all job-related
paperwork, as well as taxes, benefits and other
employment-related expenditures. Cristo Rey
provides transportation to and from work, student
worker and supervisor training, and program
implementation support.
Milwaukee’s future is your business Cristo Rey Jesuit’s Corporate Work Study Program (CWSP) is a cost-effective solution for Milwaukee
businesses that need entry-level work and want to
support the next generation of Milwaukee leaders.
• In order to fulfill the workload, four students share
one job and provide a full day of coverage, Monday
through Friday, from mid-August through mid-June.
• CWSP partners pay a competitive fee for the
students’ work, which helps offset the cost of
education for our students. The fees CWSP
partners pay are considered a business expense,
not a donation.
• Students are assigned to their job sites by CWSP
staff, with consideration to the needs of the partner
company and students’ particular interests and skills.
• Students rotate their schedules, each working five
days a month. We structure their academic
schedules to ensure that students never miss a class.
The Cristo Rey NetworkCristo Rey Jesuit High School is part of a nationwide
network of more than 30 Catholic college preparatory
high schools for students from families of limited
financial means.
Milwaukee is our ClassroomOur partner companies report that the
addition of Cristo Rey students has had an
overwhelmingly positive impact on their
workplace culture, boosting employee
engagement and their connection with the
broader Milwaukee community.
